A fundraising drive to help TNA wrestler Michael Paris (a/k/a Zema Ion) with his medical bills is underway. Paris had an emergency appendectomy and in the process doctors discovered a five centimeter tumor located on his colon. He is currently awaiting biopsy results that will determine whether the tumor is cancerous, and he will have to undergo another surgery to remove it. Paris, who recently graduated from West Virginia University, does not have medical insurance. You can learn more about the fundraiser at Giveforward.com/fundraiser/6hd2/zematna.

Powell's POV: Ion's girlfriend started the campaign with the goal of raising $30,000. Here's hoping Panda Energy, TNA, or the Carter family will join fans in lending a helping hand if they have not done so already. Thanks to David Cohen for passing along the note regarding the fundraiser.
